Stuffed Tofu

　　The filling for stuffed tofu is made from finely chopped ingredients such as mushrooms, squid, shrimp, and pork, mixed with a small amount of MSG, white salt, and starch. This mixture is then stuffed into the center of tender tofu cubes. The stuffed tofu can be steamed, braised, simmered, fried, or boiled, and is ready to eat once cooked. It’s especially flavorful when served hot in the cold winter months.

　　It is a representative dish of Hakka cuisine, known for being tender, smooth, aromatic, and nutritious. When one family cooks it, the aroma fills ten homes. It is a traditional dish served during holidays and celebrations in Hakka culture.
